We will be flying into ATL on Delta from Detroit. I searched for days for the perfect flight with enough layover time in ATL. Found it, booked it. Just received an email telling me now instead of almost 2 hours, it is down to 43 minutes. I will have my 84 year old Mother with me, there is no way she can handle running to find our gate. I wish I knew which gates we would be dealing with. Is there anyway to have a cart/shuttle reserved to take us? Thank you

You can request wheelchair service. Otherwise you can also call Delta and request an earlier flight from Detroit if there is one. There are lots of flights from Detroit to Atlanta on Delta. They should be required to accomodate you as this was an involuntary schedule change.

I'm travelling through Atlanta Airport to Rome and I have 1 hr layover in Atlanta. I have 2 kids and I'm pregnant. Is this enough time to connect, both flight are on Delta Airlines. And is there any way I can know which terminal I'll be arriving at and which terminal I'm leaving from?? TIA

where are you flying into Atlanta from? All you have to do in Atlanta is take the plane train from your arrival concourse to the E or F concourse where your flight to Rome will depart. You should have plenty of time if your first flight is on-time.

I have booked a tour of Italy with Tauck and they made the flight arrangements - Delta 193 and Delta 2558 - from Venice, Italy to Houston with a one hour 36 min layover in Atlanta. I have a concern that this isn't enough time to make it through customs and immigration? there are later flights available into Houston but I plan to work the next day and would like to get into Houston as early as possible and have a two hour drive from Houston. Should I take a chance and hope I can get a later flight if I don't make the connection.

I will fly into ATL on a ticket bought by my company and continue my journey onto the west coast with a separate ticket I have purchased myself. In a worst case, I will have to collect my baggage and re check in for the second flight. How much time should I allow for the connection?
If I get the second ticket with the same airline (Delta), do you think that they could check me in for both flights even with different tickets so I wouldn't have to collect my luggage?

I am flying from Phoenix to Atlanta (Delta) and transfer to Paris (Air France) and layover is only 55 minutes according to the ticket information in AirFrance website. DL and AF are code-shared. Is it enough time to move along the concourse? Do I need to go through security again when entering into international terminal? or are all the concourses connected within one security area requiring no more hassles with TSA?

I am flying from Phoenix to Atlanta then on to Greensboro. The layover time between my two flights is only 35 minutes. Will these flights be in the same terminal? I am concerned about making my flight to Greensboro. Thanks!

Hello iFly --- We will be returning home to Houston, TX from Barcelona, Spain and have only 1 hour 20 minutes connection. Is this enough time to arrive in the International terminal, go through Immigration, Customs and Security, and get to the domestic departure gates for Houston TX? Thank you in advance.

That is 10 minutes below the minimum connection time for International to Domestic. You have a chance, but it will be difficult. You can contact your travel agent or Delta and request a later flight or you can try it and if you miss your connection you will be rebooked on the next available flight to Houston.

You do not actually have to change terminals or go to the S. Terminal. You just have to ride the Plane Train from concourse E or F where you will arrive to your departure concourse (T, A, B, or C). You should have plenty of time. You will not have to go through security.

Traveling to Rome to Atlanta then to Sacramento.2 hour 10 min layover in Atlanta is that enough time to get luggage and go through to customs to catch flight to Sacramento. Or will luggage be transfered for us due to all flights on one ticket (all Delta flights).

Yes, that should be enough time. You will arrive in the E/F concourse, go through US Immigration, claim your bags, go through US Customs, then re-check your bags at the transfer desk, then go through security and take the plane train to your departure concourse and gate.

Hi, going to orlando from montreal, through atlanta. Arriving in atlanta on delta flight 5207 at 6:08. Then departing atlanta on delta flight 1669 at 6:55. Is that enough time? Do i have to get bagage and recheck in or will that go through on its own?typically, what terminal do i arrive and depart and what is the best way to make sure i c ,atch my flight (i am with a 3 year old)!

You will preclear US Immigration and Customs in Montreal. You don't have to do anything with your baggage, you just have to go from your arrival gate to your departure gate. The Plane Train connects all concourses inside security. You should have enough time if your first flight is on-time.

I will arrive with DL5481 and then to DL0908. Arrive at ATL 8.53am and next flight 10.35 am ATL/SXM. Could someone please tell me if the arrival and dep. from ATL/SXM from same terminal and do I need to pass through TSA. Do I need a Skytrain? Thank you. Prakton

YYZ/ATL/SXM. In my itinenary it shows arrival at Terminal I ATL while it shows dep ATL/SXM from T-3. Are the terminals at ATL both alphabetical & nos? If I do need to take the train will it show nos & alpahabets ? Is the time enough for the transfer from DL 0908 to DL 4059?

Atlanta doesn't have a Terminal 3. The concourses have letters. Both flights will be in E or F though, which are directly connected. You do not have to go through security. You will pre-clear US Immigration and Customs in Toronto. You just have to walk from your arrival gate to your departure gate. Just follow the signs.

This august I'll fly from Amsterdam to Aruba trough Atlanta. I'll have to wait there the connection to Aruba all the night (14 hours). Is it possible to go outside the airport and go to sleep in a hotel? Thank you for the advice.
